17 December: Fascism Ain’t What it Used to Be

What comes next is entirely up to the big bourgeoisie
Baby fascists surround them, begging to be taken seriously
For contrary to a popular belief that the Nazis were let in by democracy
Fascists never get elected, only punted in by a desperate elite

Sing with me / Fascism just isn’t what it used to be / They ain’t got the numbers, they ain’t got the talent / They’re only good for preying on refugees
That’s how it is for now

Civil wars are raging within the walls of the big corporationsUnreported by journalists flown in to their alpine locationsWe just can’t decide whether it would be better for business to let everybody drownRobots can make all the widgets but maybe we’d need some consumers around

[Modern fascist chorus: Give us official positions, like in the German army or the police force in GreeceDon’t let the Scousers abuse us, chase us round town to the Benny Hill theme]*
